It's a photoshop! I can tell from the pixels and having seen photoshops!

No, really, that's awesome.

What happens if your browsing the internet or using telenav and you answer a call? Does it minimize the card, go the call and pop back up when your done. Someone mentioned that telenav in the past had to be restarted if it was interrupted by a call.

Can you set multiple AIM screennames for one contact? Kind of pertinent because right now I'm doing the finishing touches of setting up my Google Contacts.

We've seen a lot through the emulator but have heard little about using the Pre as a phone. Maybe you can tell us about it.

Call quality?
Tell us about the experience of multitasking while on a call. How does it work?

Can the camera or the facebook app send pictures easily to facebook?

I'd love to find out if what the manual says about the amazon store is true, that you have to wait till you're on wifi to actually download songs you purchase. This would require you to purchase a song though, or find a free one.

From the user's manual, page 111:

Quote:
To upload a picture to a Web service such as Facebook or Photobucket, you must already
have an account with the service, and you must have the account set up on your phone. You
can set up the account on your phone during the upload process, as described in this
procedure, or you can set it up at any other time (see “Set Up an Online Pictures Account on
Your Phone” on page 112).

Also click 'your ip' on that screen. What does it report your browser type as? (under DNS)

Does the browser cache previous pages you have seen or does it have to reload them when you got back?

How about if you have two or three browser cards does it have to reload the page if you switch between cards after awhile.

Can you group bookmarks together in categories?
